Patient Forms

Please either complete the online form (under the "new patient center", online forms then click new patient health history form) or print, complet and bring your new patient forms with you, or if you prefer, arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment to complete them upon your arrival. Our new patient forms provide us essential information regarding your health history and current status.

Consultation

Next you will have a consultation with Dr. Leah to discuss your health-related problems, concerns. Your first visit is designed for the doctors to learn more about you, your condition and your expectations to determine whether chiropractic care can meet your goals.

Examination

After your consultation, Dr. Leah will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes, your ability to turn and bend as well as other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical examinations. Nothing will be done in our office without your consent.

X-Ray Studies

Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to get a full evaluation of your spine. X-rays are essential in determining if there is a problem in your spine, how long it has been there, its severity, and what are the best methods to correct it. X-rays also assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you. Most people are amazed once they see their x-rays and can oftien relate their symptoms directly to what is revealed in the films.

Report of Findings

Once all the information and examinations have been performed, the doctor will give you a report of findings to answer the three most popular questions:

Can you help me?

What do you recommend that I do to get better?

How much is it going to cost?

After discussing with you your history and your goals, examining your spine and reviewing any x-rays or tests, Dr. Leah will discuss specific recommendations to address your wellness needs.If you have a condition that requires care with other providers, the doctors will discuss this with you at this time. If the doctors believes that chiropractic care can help you, we will recommend treatment and a wellness program.

Treatment

Patients will generally be provided with their first treatment at the conclusion of the appointment. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapies, and/or soft tissue therapies. Treatment is interactive with you so you can express any concerns you have about the style of adjustment with which you will be most comfortable.
